Lore Pets and Durability?

[Lazarillo]

I know there are some different damage numbers and such for the different types of Lore pets, but does anyone have a link that explains where they compare in terms of things like defense and resistances?  Are there any that generally do better at the ol'facetank than others?

They're all pretty squishy.  The boss-tier pets not so much, but any of the lieutenants will die in a matter of a minute or less versus anything that might warrant summoning long recharge time pets.

Lore pets for face-tanking?  Not really.

My advice is to get one of the buffers that casts Fortitude.  That's huge on any character.

 

My scrapper does a lot of damage so I hold aggro off the pets.  If you're worried about them dying too fast, you can get a pet that can't be damaged but has no attacks - all it does is buff.

I wouldn't depend on lore pets for facetanking unless you're a strong healer.
